Jim Jones, Brother to Grandad Jones

I might be behind everyone else on this, but I think I've found Grandad Jones' brother Jim. The last story I heard was that he disappeared when their mother took off. If I have my links correct (and I'm pretty sure I do), he showed up in Oklahoma and married his stepfather's niece, Lena Mayfield. They were married for about 14 years and had five children. Unfortunately, he left Lena and disappeared, so after the divorce decree, I haven't been able to get any further. I'm going to do some more poking around in other family trees to see if I can find pictures, etc. If there's anything I'm missing, be sure to let me know.

    Wow... That's quite a find Kathy! I remember Grandma Norris saying that her dad (Fred Jones) went to Missouri to look for him, but never found anything that would lead him to where he might have been.

    I don't know about any of this. Never even heard that Grandad Jones had a brother. Will be interesting to find out.
